Welcome to Old Cardboard, the most complete reference resource for information about collecting vintage baseball cards and related memorabilia. More information about this eNewsletter and its companion website and magazine are found at the bottom of this page.

Note: A Profile of the Winthrop postcard set is provided on the Old Cardboard website along with a Checklist and Gallery of all known examples from the set. An animated "movie" (using the frames in the above example) that show the full wind-up and delivery of Mordecai Brown’s pitch is also provided.

Updating the website with checklists and full set galleries for additional vintage sets is an ongoing project, so check back often to check out the latest additions. There are now many thousands of card images on the Old Cardboard website and the list continues to grow. We welcome and encourage feedback with checklist additions, card images, error corrections and suggestions. Please send all input to editor@oldcardboard.com.

eBay Seller's List Updated. The popular eBay Seller's List of the "Top 50" sellers of vintage baseball cards has recently been updated with new eBay sales data, the seller's eBay feedback rating and related data. Linked directly from the home page of the Old Cardboard website, the list is intended as a convenient quick reference for use by buyers of vintage baseball cards and memorabilia on eBay--a sort of a Who's Who in the vintage card selling community. It is based on an internal database of several hundred eBay sellers, then filtered down to the "Top 50" based on their total sales of vintage (50-years or older) material. We hope that you find this service useful and encourage feedback from our readers--both positive and negative--about experiences you have had with seller's on the list.
